WHAT'S UP?!?!
This thing took me a few hours of serious concentration, ear-straining, and
finger-pounding, so I really hope you enjoy it! If it isn't accurate, well, then my face
is purple.
:D This is a really cool song with amazing lyrics, and I hope this song means as much
to you as it did to me. Have fun!!

Just in case you're not certain what a "C7" is, it is a C chord with a B note (the
seventh note above C)thrown in. Here's one simple way to play it on piano and guitar:
GUITAR: If you play a regular C chord and just take your finger off the B string, then
you have a C7 chord:
normal C chord:
e- 0 (play open)
B- 1
G- 0
D- 2
A- 3
E- x (mute)
C7 chord:
e- 0
B- 0 <---- open B string, giving the C chord its 7th
G- 0
D- 2
A- 3
e- x
PIANO: Very simple here. To play a C7, all you have to do is stretch your fingers and
add the B on top of the root triad (C-E-G chord --> C-E-G-B for C7)
Yes, this means FOUR fingers playing one chord :O
Now, when I play this song on piano, I start off the verse with a 2nd inversion C chord,
and from there the C7 is super easy. All you gotta do is play what looks like an
inversion of an Em chord but still play a C in the bass; so basically, you just switch
out the C in your 2nd inv. C major chord with the B right next to it. It's a one finger movement,
not so difficult. :)
Well guys, that's all I got for ya! I hope it all makes sense and you enjoy playing this
great song... Keep on jamming and look for more of my tabs!
